Video: Yoda vs. Vader Officially in Soulcalibur IV

Surprising no one, Namco Bandai has brought the previously console-exclusive Star Wars characters Yoda and Darth Vader to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, respectively.

The two characters are now available for download on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace for $5.

Some would argue that this timed-exclusivity was a cheap ploy by Namco Bandai to suck even more cash from Soulcalibur IV fans, and honestly I have to agree.

Most will see this latest round of downloadable content as a necessary purchase to ensure they have the game in its entirety, and even though my capitalist side applauds the strategy here, the gamer side of me hates having to shell out even more cash for content that should have been in the game on release.
